Re: Supplement No. 639 to P.S.C. Md. E-6: Rider 5 – Electric Vehicle Charging
Distribution Demand Credit
Dear Mr. Johnston:
Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (the “Company” or “BGE”) files herewith with the
Maryland Public Service Commission (the “Commission”) Supplement 639, Rider 5 – Electric
Vehicle Charging Distribution Demand Credit. The purpose of this filing is to implement BGE’s
Electric Vehicle Charging Distribution Demand Credit consistent with the recommendations of
the Public Conference 44 Electric Vehicle Work Group (“EV Work Group”) filed on January 19,
2018 in Commission Case No. 9478, and the related Commission Order No. 88997 dated January
14, 2019 accepting the demand charge credit proposal and directing BGE to file appropriate tariff
sheets. Please note, however, that in this filing, the Company proposes to expand the demand
charge credit eligibility criteria to include all non-residential electric vehicle (“EV”) charging
stations installed on or after July 1, 2019 in BGE’s electric distribution service territory, instead of
just EV chargers installed for multi-unit dwellings, workplace, or fleet use. This modification is
based on additional EV Work Group discussions that have occurred since the Commission’s
January 14, 2019 Order whereby the Company has learned that demand charges most impact direct
current fast charger (“DCFCs”) installations, and most DCFC installations are in publicly
accessible non-residential locations that are not associated with multi-unit dwellings, workplaces,
or fleet applications. Accordingly, and in an effort to further the positive impact of the demand
charge credit proposal and spur the siting and operation of additional EV chargers in central
Maryland, BGE supports expanding the demand charge credit eligibility to all non-residential EV
chargers installed on or after July 1, 2019 in BGE’s electric distribution service territory.
The distribution demand charge credit will be a fixed amount, calculated by the Company
based on the nameplate capacity of the customer’s installed EV charger and applied to that
customer’s monthly bill. Eligible customers include non-residential customers on Schedules GL
or P who purchase and install an eligible EV charging station within BGE’s electric distribution

4. Budget Billing
Budget Billing is available to Customers served under Schedules R, RL, G or GS upon approval of
the Customer's credit. Under the plan, a Customer pays for their total metered uses of electric and gas
service for all purposes in even monthly payments (adjusted to the nearest dollar). Supplier charges for
electric service and/or gas commodity are not included in Budget Billing. The monthly payment is
calculated utilizing the Customer’s recent 12 months of bills and the accumulated Budget Billing
imbalance, including taxes applicable, divided by 12. In billing, the "Late Payment Charge" is Standard
(Sec. 7.4) and is applied to each monthly payment.
Interest at the rate of one half of one percent per month is applied to any credit balance in the
Customer's Budget Billing account. A credit balance occurs when the accumulated Budget Billing
amount billed and paid under this plan exceeds the charges which would otherwise have been billed
during the same period. Interest will be credited annually to all customers in the month of June.
A Customer may request to start billing, under this Rider, in any month including the month of their
current bill. If 12 months of billing history is not available, the Company will estimate 12 months of bills
in order to calculate a monthly Budget Billing amount. The Customer’s Budget Billing account will be
reviewed every 3 months, from the starting month, to determine if an adjustment is needed to the monthly
Budget Billing payment. The Customer will be notified in that month’s bill should the payment amount
be changing in the subsequent month.
Upon discontinuance of the application of this Rider, any accumulated difference between the
amounts billed at net rates under this Rider plus any accumulated interest and the charges at net rates
including taxes, otherwise applicable for actual electric and gas uses becomes due and payable or
refunded upon presentation.
Budget Billing is available to Market-Priced Service Customers, or to the Delivery Service portion of
the bill for Customers who have selected an alternate Electricity Supplier.
5. Electric Vehicle Charging Distribution Demand CreditReserved for Future Use
Upon application by the Customer and approval by the Company, qualifying non-residential customers
who have purchased and installed an eligible Electric Vehicle (EV) charging station within the
Company’s electric distribution service territory on or after July 1, 2019, may be eligible to receive a
credit to partially offset their monthly distribution demand charge. This Rider is available to non-
residential customers on Schedules GL or P.
Application submission will begin on January 1, 2020 and terminate on June 30, 2021. No new
applications will be accepted after April 1, 2021, and all project completion documentation must be
submitted to the Company by June 30, 2021. The demand credit will be available beginning January 1,
2020, and will be a fixed amount, calculated by the Company and applied to the Customer’s monthly bill
for the account with the eligible installed and operational L2 and/or DC Fast EV charging station(s). The
maximum allowable term for the demand charge credit is 30 months or through the end of December
2023, whichever comes first, from the date of application and documentation approval by the Company.

Demand charge credits are applied to the Customer’s bill only for a portion of the maximum
distribution demand charge resulting from the addition of EV chargers to the Customer’s facility service
and metered load. The demand charge credit amount will be calculated as 50% of the maximum
nameplate capacity for new or added L2 EV chargers and/or DC Fast EV chargers. The demand charge
credit cannot exceed the Customer’s monthly distribution demand charge.
The Customer must submit an application and documentation of the completed EV Charging station
installation to the Company in order to become eligible for the demand credit (including receipts and/or
invoices of the EV chargers, as well as proof of the installation from a certified electrician). The
Company will determine acceptance, calculate the demand charge credit amount, and communicate these
results to the Customer. Once approved, Customers may not add additional EV chargers to the demand
charge credit.

amount billed and paid under this plan exceeds the charges which would otherwise have been billed
during the same period. Interest will be credited annually to all customers in the month of June.
A Customer may request to start billing, under this Rider, in any month including the month of their
current bill. If 12 months of billing history is not available, the Company will estimate 12 months of bills
in order to calculate a monthly Budget Billing amount. The Customer’s Budget Billing account will be
reviewed every 3 months, from the starting month, to determine if an adjustment is needed to the monthly
Budget Billing payment. The Customer will be notified in that month’s bill should the payment amount
be changing in the subsequent month.
Upon discontinuance of the application of this Rider, any accumulated difference between the
amounts billed at net rates under this Rider plus any accumulated interest and the charges at net rates
including taxes, otherwise applicable for actual electric and gas uses becomes due and payable or
refunded upon presentation.
Budget Billing is available to Market-Priced Service Customers, or to the Delivery Service portion of
the bill for Customers who have selected an alternate Electricity Supplier.

Demand charge credits are applied to the Customer’s bill only for a portion of the maximum
distribution demand charge resulting from the addition of EV chargers to the Customer’s facility service
and metered load. The demand charge credit amount will be calculated as 50% of the maximum
nameplate capacity for new or added L2 EV chargers and/or DC Fast EV chargers. The demand charge
credit cannot exceed the Customer’s monthly distribution demand charge.
The Customer must submit an application and documentation of the completed EV Charging station
installation to the Company in order to become eligible for the demand credit (including receipts and/or
invoices of the EV chargers, as well as proof of the installation from a certified electrician). The
Company will determine acceptance, calculate the demand charge credit amount, and communicate these
results to the Customer. Once approved, Customers may not add additional EV chargers to the demand
charge credit.
